a longer flowering time, say, 9-11 weeks, wood ur plant have high amounts of CBD's, vs. the CBN's that tend to be higher in indica plants, but ur strain is more indica then sativa. everytihing except the flowering time, thanks
Would probably be higher in THC and have some amount of sativa involved as most pure indicas are 45 to 65 days with a few exceptions...
Unless you are overmaturing the plant and this would naturally degrade more THC to CBN/CBD...
generally sativas are high thc and low cbn cbds. Indicas knock out stone comes from the cbd and cbn levels being a little higher. If you let you plant go a week longer than its supposed too, the thc will degrade into cbd and cbns if that's the high (or low) your looking for.
i was thinking the same thing C.C., mutating, i think its time to add a "new" gene pool, i know the one strain i'm working w/, has been inbred for a few years
My understanding was that Cannabinol (CBN) is the result of THC breaking down. This can be controlled by harvesting early versus late.
Cannabidiol (CBD) is produced independently of THC and is associated with the "body type high" common in Indica dominant strains.
Sounds like your strain is a hybrid and could have CBD levels ranging anywhere from Indica to Sativa. It really depends on the genetics in the strain. You can only change the THC to CBN ratio depending on harvest time.
Firstly sativas can have just as high cbd levels as indicas. Some south african and north mexican as well as narrow leafed hemp varieties can be very high in cbd. Landrace indicas can have high cbd levels but if you look at modern indicas the accesory cannabinoid levels are very low. Even look at the descriptions for the new greenhouse seed co varieties the neviles haze has a noticeably high cbd level much higher than most dutch indicas. I believe Cbn and to s9ome extent thc are what produce a more sedative high. Indicas may tend to be more sedate possibly because theyr higher in cbn.
There are always exceptions to the rule. Most of the discussion was speaking generally about Indicas vs Sativas.
Zamalito - you have some interesting points. So you are saying that CBDs are responsible for the Sativa "UP" type high? I was under the impression CBDs were sedative and it was THC that was psychoactive and "Euphoric".
I am not trying to to be argumentative, I am only interested in knowledge.
